God have mercy on us - the threat of President Duterte assassination

The threat of President Duterte assassination

Back in February, Presidential candidate Rodrigo Duterte said:

"If I become President, it would be bloody because we'll order the killing of all criminals, ang mga durugista at drug lords."

And now the threat of a bloody war on crime looks more and more real. No less than incoming President Rodrigo Duterte has offered bounties of P5 million for drug lords captured or killed, with lesser amounts for lower-ranking syndicate members.
